Reacting to the Sun’s Investor of the Year award, Cosmas Maduka described it as a prized recognition for his struggles and challenges over the years which he had turned to opportunities to build a timeless organisation.

In his words, Eric Osagie, the Managing Director of The Sun Publishing Limited, said, ‘’we felt strongly that Cosmas Maduka duly deserve this special award based on the fact that within a short time of diversifying into agriculture, the Coscharis Rice brand name has become an house hold name within the agro – allied sector.

This really gave the judges an easy task to give him this award based on his dynamism within the business terrain having virtually conquered the auto world, now doing well in agriculture’’. Osagie stated that “Coscharis Group, has grown in leaps and bounds to emerge as one of Nigeria’s fastest growing conglomerates, with interests spanning manufacturing, ICT, petrochemical, autocare and auto components, automobiles sales and services, agriculture and agro-allied business.”

He noted that Cosmas Maduka is an ardent adherent in the Nigerian project despite its harsh operating environment. “You have continued to venture and invest.

Sometimes, one wonders what drives you. At the time when some investors are going away, you are
investing more and more.”

According to Abiona Babarinde, General Manager, Marketing and Corporate Communications, Coscharis Group, this award is yet another valuable confirmation of the massive impacts and believe Maduka have had on the Nigerian economy and beyond using the Coscharis brand.
